Youth

Youth Group
St. Paul’s offers a Junior High Youth Group for 6th - 8th graders, and a Senior High Youth Group for high school students. The goal of both groups is to provide fellowship, fun, and a place to explore issues important in the lives of youth group members, and how our faith affects those issues. We want to encourage development of kids’ relationship with God, and what it means to be a person of faith. We accomplish this through a variety of activities, including social events, worship, service activities, and development of a youth group community.
Unless otherwise noted, all meetings will be held at St. Paul's Church. Parents are expected to drop off and pick up their youth group members.


Acolytes
The word acolyte means a companion: or one who helps. They carry out liturgical functions such as crucifer, server, torchbearer, and banner bearer. Children in grade 3 and up are invited to join the acolyte team and usually serve about every six weeks.
